Walkthrough

The documentation for the golangci-lint tool was updated to clarify support for version 1.x, provide guidance for projects using version 2 configuration, and expand configuration and reference links. No code or exported entities were changed; only documentation was revised.

Changes

File(s)	Change Summary
docs/tools/golangci-lint.md	Added "Supported Version" section, clarified config file version support, and updated reference links.

Poem

In the warren of docs, a new note appears,
Linting with v1—no need for fears!
If v2 you must use, the path is now clear,
With configs and links, the guidance is near.
So hop along, coders, your code’s in good cheer!

🪧 Tips

Chat

There are 3 ways to chat with CodeRabbit:

Review comments: Directly reply to a review comment made by CodeRabbit. Example:
- I pushed a fix in commit <commit_id>, please review it.
- Explain this complex logic.
- Open a follow-up GitHub issue for this discussion.
Files and specific lines of code (under the "Files changed" tab): Tag @coderabbitai in a new review comment at the desired location with your query. Examples:
- @coderabbitai explain this code block.
- @coderabbitai modularize this function.
PR comments: Tag @coderabbitai in a new PR comment to ask questions about the PR branch. For the best results, please provide a very specific query, as very limited context is provided in this mode. Examples:
- @coderabbitai gather interesting stats about this repository and render them as a table. Additionally, render a pie chart showing the language distribution in the codebase.
- @coderabbitai read src/utils.ts and explain its main purpose.
- @coderabbitai read the files in the src/scheduler package and generate a class diagram using mermaid and a README in the markdown format.
- @coderabbitai help me debug CodeRabbit configuration file.

Support

Need help? Create a ticket on our support page for assistance with any issues or questions.

Note: Be mindful of the bot's finite context window. It's strongly recommended to break down tasks such as reading entire modules into smaller chunks. For a focused discussion, use review comments to chat about specific files and their changes, instead of using the PR comments.

🧹 Nitpick comments (3)

docs/tools/golangci-lint.md (3)
15-21: Suggestion: Use plural for section header and clarify scope.

Consider renaming “## Supported Version” to “## Supported Versions” to reflect both v1 and v2 handling. You might also briefly note that v2 configs trigger a warning.

23-30: Nitpick: Add comma for improved readability.

Insert a comma after “pipelines” to separate clauses more cleanly:
- This will allow v2 linting in CI/CD pipelines while also enabling CodeRabbit to use v1.x linting for review comments.
+ This will allow v2 linting in CI/CD pipelines, while also enabling CodeRabbit to use v1.x linting for review comments.
44-44: Consider clarifying v1-only support wording.

You could revise to “supports only v1 configuration file formats” to reinforce that v2 configs aren’t accepted here.

31-34: Clear disabling instructions.

The “Disable golangci-lint in CodeRabbit” section is concise and the example config key is accurate.

54-56: Links section updated.

The added links to both v1 and v2 configuration docs are correct and helpful.

+If you have a `golangci-lint v2` configuration file in your project, you will see a warning in CodeRabbit reviews and CodeRabbit will not be able to use `golangci-lint` to inform review comments.


The important part is that the tool won't get applied, more than the warning. How about this reword of the second part of the sentence:

"[...], then CodeRabbit won't be able to use golangci-lint to review pull requests. In this case, CodeRabbit includes a warning message about the configuration file in its reviews, instead.
